Calisthenics Exercises : Pushups & Calisthenics

[Joet80t]

Try looking straight ahead instead of at the floor.. makes it harder.

[WhitePride925]

calisthenics* you spelled it wrong. good form though

[MegaBabypunter]

not the way the navy SEALs do it

[kingm56]

What's the name of that poster behind him with the guy in black briefs. I think they're cool and want one.

[CopsUrMasterAndLord]

Wow, thanks as if we didn't know how to do basic pushups. What a waste of time.

[thompson9400]

@CopsUrMasterAndLord

yes you are

[thompson9400]

@CopsUrMasterAndLord

your a waist of time

[CopsUrMasterAndLord]

@thompson9400 I'm a "waist" of time? I am the midsection of the human body? Don't you mean "waste"? Haha, now I know why you need basic instructions in pushups.

[fbgang]

how much days do you need to push up to a result

[PARTYzaNOVAC]

@fbgang

Depends on your genes, body structure, nutrition, effort you put in, cardio workout and many other factors but you might see some results after 2 weeks.

[24HighFlyer24]

@PARTYzaNOVAC

2 weeks are you crazy

after 3 months there little results

[PARTYzaNOVAC]

As I said - it depends on many factors. I take myself as an example, in 3 months I had 6 pack abs and was pretty ripped, BUT my workout consisted of everday hard weight training + running at night + strict diet and I really transformed in 3 monts, though 2 weeks are ENOUGH to see SOME results.

I haven't said he'll become Pudzinowski in 2 weeks,

Remember, results are the fastest in the beginning because muscles are starting to activate, later results are a lot ahrder to achieve ;)

[Devedza]

PARTYzaNOVAC, au koji si kralj! XD

[dudeflash45]

how do you get ripped in 3 months??? O_O

[kaasinjebroek]

i also prefer training at home it's free and if you do it right it will pay off

[radic14]

dude ur lazy, u need to be active

[indskab]

I actually guys hate GYMS, and I like to do Push Up and Stomach training at home on the bed.

[Ninety9Soulz]

[hardrain08]

lllol

[heckles300]

yes it does effect your wrists, some people have stronger joints and can take more pressure but many cant so its best to keep your wrists parallel with your forearms say by doing them on your knuckles or fingers or by getting push up bars. Its not about being a wuss its about not hurting yourself needlessly

[goddabest]

Its harder to do it with the fists, you get a better workout and you keep your wrists safe.. well this only matters if pushups are your main workout, its like having correct form for using dumbells you shouldn't lock your arm, and that doesn't help you in getting more workout it may however injure you.

If however your just going to do them once in a while it really doesn't matter too much.

[rednut2000]

I will believe that when you upload a vid...

[rednut2000]

Upload a vid, cuz no one believes you...bitch...

[sluseter2123]

Oh?10 sets of 40 huh..well i can do 40 sets of 10 times too..that makes 400..what u said was u did it 400 times..means that u cant do it in 400 times in 1 set..u faggot? WHO AGREES give me a +1

[shunligati]

fingers hurts more : )

[mistaria]

I'm a girl and I'm telling you guys to stop being pussys. Oh no my joints wa wa wa. Doing it on my fists is what hurts!

[uckushtar]

shut up you pussies oh "use a push up stand"

get over yourselves. for hundreds of years people have been doing push ups like this and now "oh your wrists and joints"

[NAMELESSWARRi0R]

everyones right this way does fuk ur wrists. i do it on my bottom 3 knuckles bcuz they're in line with ur forearm and it toughens ur knuckles for punching. or u can do fingertips n strengthen ur grip.

[Caliboyz101139]

LOL..true true

if it did mess up your wrist and joints they would have stoped doing push ups this was a loooong time ago

think people just think the old fashion way is borring or hard lol..pussies

[lufodao1990]

1/5

[Natdaprat]

Don't put your hands like that. Use your fists or use a push up stand.

[speaker3600]

you make it look so hard

[Bonethugz4lyfe]

i do push ups every day randomly until my arms get tired

[DBZMX]

yo guys wait stop u are NOT Suppse to do push ups on ur wrist like i know its DA normal way to do it but no it cause joint pains and i am now dealing with dat get a push up stand or do it on ur fist

[pikilegends]

ill pass out if i breath like that lol

[datonedude000]

is it ok if i do push ups everyday or do i have to let my muscles relax??

[Yoruichi13]

I'd let your muscles relax and do pushups every other day (at least). Even if you are not sore, your muscles may be ripped and need time to recover. Good luck.

[WickedG5150]

this guys had poor form his ass is up in the air

[Billete37]

if it starts to feel easy add more days or add more push-ups per days you do them.

Me personoly I do 25 reps rest 30-45 seconds, and repeat this on a average of 100 push-ups in one sitting a day ocassionally doing 200

[BryLoc729]

It's actually been proven that when you do push-ups whether it be face down or slightly forward, you are working different muscles in the shoulder. So neither one is actually wrong.

[kron0725]

my left elbow cracks when i do push ups...any thoughts on why?

[guybedoss]

I had the same problem, you should put some ice on your shoulder from time to time(i do it for 15 minutes 2-3 /week) and let it rest for few weeks, remember to avoid advanced push ups like 90 degree push up once you get back to your routine, all that did help me to solve that problem which may get worse if you don't do anything and continue your routine.

[kron0725]

ok thanks but i cant really rest...im going off to Marine Corps boot camp in a few months and need to get prepared...=[

[carlos555555555]

oh,i am soo dumb,i didnt even know that 90 degrees pushups are the advance ones,i always do 90 degrees ones,and yeah my shoulders also crack :(

[kron0725]

but why my shoulder though!??

[guybedoss]

maybe because you dont do it to the failure evrytime you do advanced push ups

[TheFabFoo]

i get cracking on certain spots to at times, I dont know why , as long as you are not in pain then you have nothing to worry about

[saintromes]

maybe you need to stretch and warm up for at least five minutes of each.

[dsfhskh]

wtf u dont have to touch the ground with ur face

this person is dumb ass and he is very weak look

at his face when he finish 2 push up

[imnoobish]

i thought u had to look slightly forward when doing push ups

[akgj]

In the military you have to look forward

[kiwilimew]

Wth?

I thought when you did push ups, you didn't have to touch the ground with your face?

Ugh. I've been working out wrong..

[dudeflash45]

hey guys, i drink a lot of 2% milk, does that make u strong?? especially when doing push ups? plz reply, thnx

[TheRealSuperbatXS]

Yes, that can help. Drinking milk is good for your bones because of the calcium. However, being good at push ups comes from doing a lot of them. Repitition helps the most.

[dudeflash45]

but does it also help build muscles?

[PhoenixBurst999]

i think so

[ToimintaMies]

yeah milk = protein

[dudeflash45]

how many glasses of milk do you think i should drink in one day? im 14 years old now, turning 15 on december 9

[eamh2002]

1litre of milk contains about 30-40grams of protein. You need alot more a day but for after workouts: If gainomax recovery drinks have "all you need to recover" and they have about 20-30g protein, you will get the same or more protein amount drinking 1litre of milk (5glasses) and also get that high quality milk protein. And totally natural ;)

[zeniouso]

Well milk is great for protien but I don't reccomend drinking it straight before working out.. just after or with something like whey protein

[Marine475]

Well man milke is ment for calves not people so if you're after whey protein the best way to get is to buy it in bag but be carefull since some of these contain 80% glucose or some other sugar. Eggs are superb however you need to be carefull since factory farming involve feeding hens with their own shit with added antibiotics so try to go for free range eggs. Averall just try to avoid precesed food and you'll be ok.

[omegaware]

man i heard u shouldn't have ur palms flat on the floor during push ups becuz it can cause severe wrist damage. So im asking, how should hands be placed on the ground when doing pushups, should it be a fist or something else?

[zeniouso]

Fist is good but can be very uncomfortable... Its reccomended that you use push up bars which are bars that are arched so your hands aren't hitting the ground and you can go deeper..

[thungrac01]

Ok, I do this for fitness and It hlps me a lot! Thanks for up this VID. Keep upload more!

[welterweight13]

would these make your arms bigger as you do them over the time?

[WarhammerftwXD]

roflmao @ you

[welterweight13]

...........bitch

[fonty599]

Dude instead of asking that here why don't you google "How to get bigger arms". That way you won't get dumb-asses like Warhammer trying to make themselves look better by pretending to laugh at you on youtube

[muaythai0424]

my pushups are better

i use stands to keep my wrists stationary to avoid injury, putting your hands flat risks hurting your wrists. the stands also allow your pushup to go deeper for a better overall pushup. i dont look towards the floor when i do pushups, i look forward so my chest can almost touch the ground

3-5 sets of 8-12 reps

a LOT of resistance

that will give u better results

[thabigkahuna86]

8-12reps man u weak y is it a lot of resistance is it cause u a fat ass or is it cause ure mom sits on ure back

[zeniouso]

LoL, Just so you know 8-12 reps done right is better then 50 push ups with bad form.. You'll get amazing effects just doing 8 ones right then 50 wrong so.. figure it out..

[darkeryche]

and does that make any sense what so ever?

[dillan94P]

u shud hav gone into more detail i liked your pushups.

[renedowling]

Who do push ups is an idiot, go to the gym

[Punk4Life408]

do a lot you feel it

[ShinDaMadness]

This is so wrong...the hand position hes using will make your hands hurt...

[thatsedrich]

It's the wrist that will start hurting. But you're right. He's also going to fast on each rep

[conmanarmy12]

always look fowards opens up the airwaves so u can breath better, his arms r too wide too..

[scoobysdeathwish756]

Get that ass out of the air private Snowball!

[GamerTwinz]

You'll fuck up your wrists pushing that way. use your fists, or a stand.

[decapininator]

hes gona fuck up his wrists

i do my fists or i use dumbells as stands

[misterfisherman]

you need a good stone floor,and you place your fists on them whilst doing push ups

[Strongguy818]

pushups are easy when i first started out i did 10 pushups each morning and noon and night and then i got better and now i can do 400 pushups in 9 mins.

[renedowling]

How many kilos do you bench press

[09adecha]

does push ups make you stronger and bigger and do by gaining weight? And do you have to spread your feet while doing push ups?

[09adecha]

i do pushups with my feet spread apart

[RudyMoz]

Most push ups i did in a minute is 60 and i can do about 150 in a row before my chest gets cramped

[shellyrene2u]

your hot!!! will u be my PFT??

[jhtrico1850]

My joints make noise but they don't hurt when I go down. Is this normal?

[shirairyuscorpion]

this is what i did just now, i weight 170lbs/77kg and i did 12 pushups in a row with a 120lbs/55kg person standing on my shoulder blades. all the way down all the way up. 12 pushups in a row with 120lbs standing on my back,. and then i rest and take a breath for less than 30 seconds and continue with 35 diamond pushups in a row. no more 120lbs on my back. just my bodyweight for 35 diamond pushups in a row. what do u think?

[KishiNCamile]

I've tried to get in shape and started doing 500 push ups a day. Problem is, it's tiring, I did a lot of them wrong and I wouldn't do other exercises. My shoulder is sore, so I've stopped doing them for a few days. Now I'll concentrate on jogging and abdominal exercises and only do 50 push ups a day.

[CPfan17]

That's sort of what I did. I would do 500 push ups every morning, But I realized that I wasn't do correct form, So I now do less, but with better form.

[beatdown345]

do more push ups weakling

[6ThanatoS6]

that exercise guy looks like the exercise guy from gta 4, bruce? i think is his name? lol

[9m2man]

brucie

[Arkura]

lol the basic pushup how many diffrent syles are there

[jimbosudbury]

guys, dont just do as many as you can i have a better one.

do it in sets, iv done it for a while now so i do super sets of 20.

now, start from what pressup range you can reach "very comfortably", i started with 12.

you want to do from 5 to 25 reps in a set.

do one set, have a small rest, do another set and youl notice itl start to build on you.

keep doing this until you cant do anymore.

the reason for this is it allows the muscles a break to relax and then re pump. ITS GOOD!

[huacalin1]

ok, im tired..

i saw like 30 push ups videos.. and no one said how many push ups i've got to do.. so im going to 30 every day

[musicmaster5000]

Don't you just do as many as you can?

[arias2141]

its better to have a constant number than say having 35 today but 12 tomorrow[cause you pushed your self to the limit, not properly stretching and sore shoulders & chest... like what happened to PE class for me :|]

You'll develop your muscles faster cause its used to it.

[ddn1987]

does anyone know if there's a difference between regular pushups where your elbows are tucked in and wide stance pushups?

[schwall103]

when you do them with a closer grip it works more of the triceps area, whereas a wide grip push up works more of your chest/pecs

[loilk]

actually i used to do about 80 push ups at a time, and i did it almost everyday. But now im kinda getting lazy, and only can do 40 at a time. OH GOSH! gonna practise push ups again!

[candikking]

youre supposed to look straight ahead, not down

[Lillymill]

I don't know how healthy it is but I like doing pushups just after waking up.

I just drop from the bad onto the floor and start working out.

This way I don't feel any pain or strain as if I'm on painkillers or something.

I simply keep on doing it as long as my muscles work.

[00000Dean00000]

ive heard somewhere that if you exercise straight after waking up, you get your metabolism working x amount times faster.

[Lillymill]

I don't know about my metabolism but it seems as if your body's still asleep.

[Lillymill]

I meant "my body"... :|

[iamLucashaha]

same i just start doing push ups when i wake up lol

[shaiknj]

I would do something to warm up my muscles before doing the pushups. It could hurt otherwise. Definitely not recommended straight out of bed.

[Diaper1rash]

thats what batman does in batman begins lol

[haszK]

Not unless you are a Soldier of the Army.

HOOOOOAHHH!!!

[wannaboi]

do push ups work triceps

[splendidmonkey]

I was always told you should look in front of you. (even though I don't always do)

[sallam94]

very very nice, man.

[Vieirrra]

You are doing the pushups bad, your wrist cant be like that!

[swapnil23]

I can do 50 a set but I dont go as low as he does. It always baffles me how deep you have to go. I read your arms should be parallel to the ground and thats good enough.

[EjenAmy]

wht?? why you have to look at the floor?? wtf? it makes it easy. isnt it??

[Lillymill]

I agree. When people look down, they usually think that they are lowering their bodies more than they actually do.

[DeburaInc]

i look down, but i go down till my nose touches the floor

[Lillymill]

If you keep your back straight it should be fine I guess.

[superheronumber1]

That's exactly what I do and it works fine for me. I know I am getting slack when my nose can't touch the ground again. Some people here say you should be looking forward when you do them, that makes me confused now.

[schwall103]

yeah dont look forward when your nose touches thats a much better way, more consistent with each push up, but if you're looking for a tougher kind of pushup try to do a 2-3 seconds down, then 2-3 seconds up, it takes out all the momentum and is a real muscle builder

[splashmins]

lol i do 1 hand push ups

[takadi]

Good for you, should your mommy give you a hug now?

[splashmins]

shut the fuck up noob, dont reply to my comment y

[perrofrio]

He is just showing how to do a basic push-up as he explains in the tag, a lot of people do not even know hot to do a basic push up.

[stamlobeta]

first of all..his elbows should be very close to the chest...he opens up his elbows here...and thats wrong!

[Verradonairun]

He doesnt do it EXACTLY right.

[YouRSoJewish]

man when ever i try to do a push up my that part touches the floor not my chest. pl give me an advice for how to do a proper push up without your thatouching the floor first instead but my chest or my nose. plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz i beg u guyz plzzzzzz give me an advice

[andyvilla89]

whats touching the floor now? we cant even make out what your trying to say.

[YouRSoJewish]

numb nuts i mean like my chest doesn't get near to the floor my dick does. wow u cant even understand that holy!

[andyvilla89]

do push ups with pants on next time.

[YouRSoJewish]

rfuckin dumb. doesnt it doesnt matter if wear pants or not. oh sorry who am i tellng this to. u have no dick hah

[andyvilla89]

wear tighter pants.

[amanhjames]

lol where tighter underwear and try to focus on your upper body when you are doing the push ups.. I have the same problem.. well sort of, only with loose clothes! :-P

you have to feel it in your arms and chest.. all I can say! :)

[rk246]

tell ur girlfriend 2 get below ya next time

[ZIPPERG00CH]

you have to straighten your back real tight

[Verradonairun]

Just do push ups form the side into a mirror and you have to be perfectly straight.

[shirairyuscorpion]

i do sets of diamond pushups. 4 sets. 1 minute rest between sets. first set 25 reps, second set 25 reps, third set 25 reps and the last set 35 reps. if i go all out i can do 70 diamond pushups in a row. all the way down all the way up.

[jettskys]

how many push-ups is a good amount for one sitting?

[psalm143]

As many as you can, just keep trying to improve the amount you can do. You can mix it up as well and do Close Grip Push ups, Elevated Leg Push ups, Fist Push ups, Depth Push Ups, etc.

[jettskys]

k thanks, I knew that much though. I just meant like how much does the average fit person do?

[ignuz]

Depends.. I know some of my mates could push out 100.. I have just started exercising again and struggle to reach 30.. I used to be able to do 50 =(

[chinquecfro44]

pushups have helped me allot just by doing 200 a day

[drewbag]

cor thats quite alot!

[Agell]

You do them in sets, usually 20 or 25. 50 a set when you're a beast.

[tr4dentjgxxx]

im better than that lol

[qaxxi2010]

um guys who cares...its a basic push up.

[ninethousandhawk]

ur supposed to put your head up when your doing a pushup! dumbass

[DJrazial]

why would it help to put your head up when doing a pu ... wht r u like 12?

[DaAvi8a]

because it keeps ur back strait and everything done properly. what are you like 12? or just too stupid to understand... jokes lol

[UnleadedPetrol]

You'll fuck your neck if you do that.

[Koop89]

i was taught the same thing. to keep your head forward.

[spartancordova]

Keeping your head up open your airway so you can get more air (Fuel) to work with. It also alligns your spine for better form.

[787maverick]

should i listen to the guy that actually has muscles or the random youtube commentator? besides his airway was straight. you keep your head up as in airway is clear not head up like a swiming dog. a little knowledge is a dengerous thing

[launchthis]

these push-ups are just getting fit, not training for things like wrestling when you should keep your head up so you get used to looking straight

[arcer01]

that was so great I didnt know how to do push up woah

omg

[CraziiLadiE]

dupa a nie ameryka lol.. dont hate appreciateee

[hudy005]

lol...to oni juz pompek nie umieja robic??...zaloze sie ze ameryka :D

[Dazubegener]

I like what I see at 2 seconds with the woman with the ball.

[Rockmangames]

Look at his buttock.. it is upward a little bit and body is not straight enough. It is not correct. Why expert ? He need to work on it.

[thompson9400]

@Rockmangames

he did fine

[godly04]

To the people posting about arms thinning from push ups..

Push ups affect your triceps and chest, you won't see a noticable difference in your arm size.. unless your triceps were already rediculously huge.

and even if they do thin out, lean strong muscle is better than bulky, awquard muscle.. hate to break it to you.

At least as far as fighting is concerned.

That's what we work out for, right?

That's what I work out for :P

[xxsgal]

That's not right. In the army you gotta look to the front, not down

[soytodosauce]

Agree. That's how we learn it in martial arts, too.

[Feedlink]

shirairyuscorpion nobody cares HONESTLY.

[34r0n]

LOL I know, I'be been seeing his post in every push up video...

[OrgrimDeathhammer]

We don't care, you are a retard, and i bet you can't even do 10 normal ones, you just say it on the internet, why don't you post a vid of yourself, with this humongous achievement.

[jimmybloodyjimmy]

that your a cunt
